Springfield, GA
Springfield, GA's wildfire risk, in USFS's own numbers
Springfield's 1,233 buildings earn a 68th-percentile wildfire-risk score nationally under USFS's model — well above the national norm for wildfire risk. (Source: USFS's Wildfire Risk to Communities methodology.)
Fire likelihood alone (USFS's burn-probability figure) ranks Springfield at the 68th national percentile — 0 points above its risk-to-structures score, a gap driven by how much is actually built there.
Springfield's building exposure, zone by zone
1,233 buildings are counted in Springfield, and 50.4% of them sit in USFS's Direct exposure zone — flame contact, not just ember cast, is the live possibility for most of them, against 0% rated Minimal.
Where Springfield ranks
Springfield's risk sits at a similar level relative to Georgia (56th percentile statewide) as it does nationally (68th) — this place isn't unusual for its own state either way. Among the 31,521 US communities USFS scores, Springfield ranks 10,240 for wildfire risk (1 is highest) and 10,450 by building count (1 is largest). Within Georgia alone, it ranks 298 of 669 places by risk. See the full county-by-county picture for Georgia on its state page.
Springfield and the insurance market
Springfield's high rating (68th percentile) puts it among the places where the national carrier-pullback trend is most relevant — not a guarantee of a coverage problem, but a reason to shop rather than assume.
What would actually reduce this score
With 50.4% of Springfield in Direct exposure, defensible-space clearing and ember-resistant construction (vents, Class-A roofing) address the exposure this page's own numbers describe, not a generic checklist. See the home-hardening guide.
More on how this number was built
Springfield's 68th-percentile score and its burn-probability figure both come from the same USFS workbook, documented in the methodology guide. For more on what direct exposure implies beyond Springfield, see the exposure-zones guide.
